|

| I have a colleague using MaxBulk mailer who sent a message with a Word document attached. Some recipients received the attachment just fine, and some received the attachment, but the document was blank. Any ideas as to what went wrong? |

| That use to be the result of a buggy server anti-virus. Usually the whole attachment is being removed though. |

| I thought it was odd that some people got the attachment and it showed the text and some did not. Is there a fix to the buggy server anti-virus? Or, is it on the end-user's end of things where we have no control? |

| The best with attachments is always to avoid them and add a link to the file stored on your site. That way it will never fail. |
